Swifties Making Taylor Swift Relationship a Circus?   

The PDA between Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce is very different from her relationship with Joe Alwyn.

Swift's romantic life has consistently been the subject of public interest and investigation, so the talk around her connection with Kelce is not new. But the level of is baffling - even those neutral onlookers cannot help but find out every little thing about them.

Fans are drawn to Swift and Kelce's willingness to display their connection freely this time around, though.

Swift's last relationship with actor Joe Alwyn, which lasted six years and saw little of the two in public, even when it came to making remarks about each other or their relationship, seems to be in stark contrast to this one.

Mental health professionals advise couples to decide together whether to make their relationship public or private.

Every road has advantages, but there are drawbacks as well. One drawback of the public way is that it allows those outside the relationship to interpret indications about the health of the partnership, whether or not these signals are genuine.

For example, following the Chiefs' Super Bowl triumph, Kelce yelled "Viva Las Vegas" into a microphone.

When Swift's face briefly came into view, a lot of her admirers were positive that she had "the ick," or an unexpected sense of disgust, for Kelce.

"We call this kind of body language micro-expressions," says Gary Brown, a licensed marriage and family therapist "What we're seeing are snapshots in time. We're seeing a couple in a given moment, but we don't really know what's really the baseline of their relationship when they're not in front of a camera or a microphone. What is the tone of their relationship? What is the quality of their relationship? What is the nature of their love? And so I think we really run the risk of analyzing to the point where our analysis can become pretty easily flawed."
